Reddit river : A Mobile Version Of Reddit

Reddit river is a mobile version of reddit.com. It is 3 times as light (in size) and it automatically discovers mobile versions of stories posted on reddit.

For example, a link to The Washington Post would get rewritten to printable version of the same article! Save your money by saving the MegaBytes you browse from your mobile device!

This site is developed by Peteris Krumins and it was done in Python programming language (reddit.com is also written in this language). The basic idea of the project was to make a lightweight version of reddit which would keep track of stories on the front page and the most popular subreddits.
